their take on generational attitude difference on love, growing up a second generation immigrant in america, thanksgiving episode about coming out, minority workers living in a major city, etc

the way how they tackle issues with younger people vs parents is spot on

I just finished S2 now and my only complaint is how rich of a lifestyle the characters are living in new york city. to be fair most shows based in NYC have the same problem

I agree, but that first episode did not wrap me in. I put it on my backlog after watching the first episode and it took awhile for me to find time to watch the show

How so? In this show he is extremely humanized compared to P&R and his stand up. He seems like a funny normal stand up guy.

I just feel it's unrealistic for people in their late 20's/early 30's to live so decadently in one of the world's most expensive cities. even with dev's job in S2 and his dad being a doctor...but also it's very unrepresentative of real life

completely agreed. that, the different people in NYC and dev/azn friend talking to their parents about immigrating to america in S1 are top tier episodes

but Aziz is annoying

dev can get irritating sometimes. too chirpy, too loud and feels like he's pretending to be a different person, putting on an act to be someone he wants to be rather than himself

The Italian chick is unrealistic. No chick would be that perfect looking and that cool.

Also she couldn't have possibly sent stronger mixed messages, IRL that would NOT happen unless the chick was seriously into you.

parts of her and dev hanging out reminded me of 500 days of summer, especially the cutesy vibe to the relationship

We'll see how that turns out, but still, there shouldn't have even been conflict between them. With how strong she was coming on, Dev making a move should've been instant success.

I think they'll still love it but probably not relate so much

the thanksgiving episode hit me hard since I was a black guy who had to come out to his mum and I could tell she had exactly the same attitude when I told her that i'm gay

Poda, I love the show. Arnold annoys me, but I love the show so much. Ladies and Gentlemen, Parents and Thanksgiving. So good.

And I love when TV shows do episodes like New York, I Love You. I love that. Like Open Season and Couples on Law & Order...

While I disagree with the sentiment that it's a "white people are shitty" show, Arnold is legit one of the worst characters on the show. >_>

I love that scene in Season 1 where Arnold is walking with Rachel

Rachel: what's it like being a giant?
Arnold: you can always see at concerts. airplane seats are uncomfortable. what's it like being tiny?
Rachel: airplane seats are good; concerts... not so much

I think that's a pretty good summary of the first season

You'd be surprised how many women people get involved with when they actually go outside. Its just the story of a socially active guy so of course there is romance. He's not a douche.
